It was 100 years ago in April that Richard Hadley of King's Bridge, N. Y., arrived in the vicinity of Huntley. He had fifty cents and two small red cedar trees which he brought from Cortland Park, N. Y. One of these trees still stands on the old Hadley farm, recently vacated by R. D. Hadley. He soon bought the forty acres of land where the farm house now stands from a Mr. King. He built a log cabin and a few sheds. In 1864 he built the house that still stands on the farm. While trying, to drown his sorrows by visiting taverns, William F. Lasco, a farmer on Route 173 in Channel Lake, was taken to the county jail last Thursday to face charges of drunkenness and neglecting to take care of his animals. A heifer belonging to Lasco had been left stranded in a water hole on two occasions the previous week. 8PORTSMANS' CLUB % PICNIC HELD JTftfE 1« The third annual picnic, sponsored by DeKalb County Sportsmens' Clubs, will be held at Anderson's woods on the Kishwaukee river, between Genoa and Sycamore, route 23, on Sunday, June 16.

This was the encouraging mes- . sage which several hundred students, representative of American youth of college age, received from leaders of American thought at a re- World's Fair. Recognizing that youth today faces serious problems of adjustment Just as society does as a whole, these leaders nevertheless expressed the conviction that new inventions and new products, fanning out on an ever broadening Industrial front, would open up frontiers far more limitless than those Horace Greeley had in mind when he sajd, "Go west, young man." In his talk to the college students, Mr. Knudsen said that while he couldn't tell them specifically where to get a Job. he could tell them that industry has room for them. The program represented the first attempt by any large business group to sponsor a comprehensive consideration of the much-discussed youth problem. An apt keynote of the dinner program was offered by Mr. Knudsen when he said to the youth present: "To me, you are the new models coming along. The rest of us are la the used car class." ^UBUHKU By Jotm Harvey Furbay, PkJ7. IT IS HOT BARREN Most people believe, with Stephen Leacock, that the Arctic regions are endless miles of ice, snow and desolation, where nothing can live or grow. This is all nonsense, says Vilhjalmur Stefansson in his absorbing book, "Unsolved Mysteries of the Arctic," in which he attacks the armchair explorers and explodes many ideas about the North polar regions. Instead of barren space where nothing will live, he tells of hordes of mosquitoes and "bright flowers that carpet the Mackenzie delta." The Arctic is "as full of life as Mopte Qarlo" and far from tfoe story-book kind of place, he coneludes. (Public Ledger--WHO Sarvice.)

There is a certain strange allurement about selecting our Chief Executive which brings more voters to the polls than for any other election. The choosing of a president is rather important but as a nation we are prone too attach too much significance thereto and thereby underestimate the vastly more serious problem of electing the right men and[ women to sit in Congress. ^ There are many and tins cohnmrist is numbered among them, who thor» oughly disapprove of a'great deal of the legislation which has been,enact* ed at Washington since March 4, 1933. Mistakenly, we have pfisced all the blame on "President Ifoosevelt an<| his coterie of Left-Wingers instead of putting a large part of the censure where it really belongs, upon the Congress. ( No president ever could have taken unto himself such autocratic- poweiro unless a subservient and spineless Congress had granted such control, never intended by the frsmers of oar Constitution to be allocated to any Chief Executive.

Most certainly we should give serious thought to whioh of these gentlemen we decide to put into the White House for the next four years. However, the thing of paramount importance, is to send the rijght mento Congress, legislators who can b« trusted, in the event we again make an unfortunate presidential selection, not to yield to a cunning and conniving bureaucracy. During the past eight years we have witnessed the sad spectacle of a presi* dent breaking all of his high-soundinjr pre-election promises. This ought to teach us that we should be wary of ever again putting too much faith in any one individuaL Our insurance agaijfst a repetition of broken pledges is to follow the Dead of the insurance companies and distribute the risk. We must catalogue and index every Congressional candidate, whether Democrat or Reublican. Mfle must elect men who profess faith in and fidelity to the historic principles and conceptions of American government. A few of these, after election, may fall by the wayside and discard their campaign pledges, but in numbers there is safety. The majority of them can be trusted to keep their word and especially, if after election, we constantly remind them ef their promises.
